Why this name?
Our name choice is simple. It's our family name (Fretwell).
Do you play live?
We play live, regionally in the mid-west. We love to play live. It's the time when we get the magic back from our listeners.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet, and specifically mp3's, will have an eventual positive change in the music industry. The musician will have more say over the music they make and more variety of music will be available.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes, we would sign with a label. It's still the best way to "mass market" your music.

Anything else...?
Let the Native American Flute carry you through your stressful day with it's ancient earthen sounds that have been made for thousands of years. It's one of the oldest instruments in the world. In these uncertain and fearful times it's comforting to have the sounds that have been around forever and will last an eternity close to us.
